FASTENING DEVICE.

Application filed January 30, 1326. Serial No. 84,860.

Our invention relates to improvements in fastening devices, and moreparticularly has reference to a device of the class described adaptedfor use in fastening transformations or the like upon the head.

Referring to the accompanying drawings, we have illustrated in Fig. 1,in perspective, a suitable form of fastening device, embodying anapplication of our invention. Fig. 2 shows the same opened out inposition to be applied to the hair of the head, and Fig. 3 illustratesin perspective, a modified form of one part of the device.

4 indicates a suitable plate of metal or other suitable material whichis preferably covered upon the inside with a sheet of rubber 5 or thelike to increase the adhesiveness or friction of the same, and 6indicates holes which may be formed in the margin thereof for stitchingthe same to a formation of hair to be applied to the head.

7 indicates a suitable form of comb which may be stamped out of metal orother suitable material, and the same is provided with laterallyextending lugs or bearings 8, adapted to pass into the loops 9 formed atopposite corners of the base piece 4;, the said loops being of coursepreferably resilient, for which purpose the plate a may be stamped outof steel, hard rolled brass, or the like. The loops 9 are preferablyelongated as shown, and the bearing members 8 are also preferably ovalor elongated, so that there is a tendency always to keep the comb flatand parallel with the plate 4. Thus, in using the device, it is appliedto the hair of the head while open, as shown in Fig. 2, and after thecomb has been properly introduced into the hair of the head, the plateportion carrying the hair piece, is then pushed over and held tightagainst the head,

being covered by the applied hair until it is desired to remove thesame, when it is only necessary to lift the applied hair, and the devicemay be readily withdrawn.

In the modification shown in Fig. 3, the plate 4 it will be observed issomewhat corrugated, or in other words, stamped or otherwise formed, sothat the prongs or teeth of the comb will become seated or imbeddedtherein, thus providing additional bindingor friction for insuring asecure hold upon the hair of the head. This is further provided for bypressing the added hair piece and device against the head when it isapplied.

Of course it will be understood that various modifications may be madein the construction and arrangement of parts without departing from thespirit of the invention as claimed.

I'Ve claim 1. In a device of the class described, a base portion, andmeans in combination therewith for attaching the same to a hair piece,and in combination therewith a comb pivotally secured thereto, saidsecuring means being adapted to bind the comb against said base portion.

2. In a device 0f the class described, a base portion, and means incombination therewith for attaching the same to a hair piece, and incombination therewith a comb pivotally secured thereto, said securingmeans being adapted to bind the comb against said base portion, saidbase portion providing a seating for the prongs of said comb. I

In testimony whereof we hereunto affix our signatures.
